BETHPAGE PLAZA COUPON

The month of March has been
a very busy one for the Women's
Club of Bethpage. NYS General

areas in Nassau and Suffolk par­ticipated
in the competition. Both
vocal and instrumental renditions
of classical selections were pres­ented.

Club of Farmingdale was proud
to sponsor Rebecca Tropiano and

Jeanette Harmsworth and Kelly
Brennan, were 2nd place winners,
and 3rd place was awarded to
